I want one of those live chicken hats - those were awesome. The dentists continue to amaze me. He seems like the kind of guy who I would expect to “punch the glacier” when his wife starts having trouble but he keeps his cool and just rolls with it. It almost makes up for him being such an arrogant ass. ---

> [@EllisDee](#): > > No Phil narration in the middle of the race with racers passing by was a bummer. I think that it is a good thing that they didn’t show that. Whenever Phil showed up like that, it felt tacked on and took me away from the race. ---

He seems like the kind of guy who I would expect to “punch the glacier” when his wife starts having trouble but he keeps his cool and just rolls with it. It almost makes up for him being such an arrogant ass. The thing is, he’s not an arrogant ass. He’s arrogant, but he’s not an ass. The two so often go together, especially on TAR, that I think we assume they always come as a package…but this guy manages to pull it off somehow. ---

> [@StarvingButStrong](#): > > The greeters have all been so memorable that I wonder if that is a deliberate red herring? As in, there will one of those ‘recap the series’ quizzes in the final episode but they won’t ask about the greeters but in some sideways way – what color shirt they were wearing, or what their first name was, something like that. I agree. It makes sense and is something they have done before. In fact last season was the first I saw that did not end with this kind of puzzle. ---

> [@Suburban\_Plankton](#): > > And you even left out the fact that the chicken had a dove sitting on its back! And I’m disappointed that we haven’t had an ethnomusicologist chime in, comparing and contrasting the Moroccan and American banjos. Ignorance needs to be fought, people! ---

When I saw the banjo I was reminded of this: [Tigers are good with banjos](http://youtu.be/Pb5U8C8rALk) Sorry, that’s all I know about banjos. ---
